/v/ - Video Games

A lot of games come in without input remapping, that's one cut and dry improvement that would help the game.

>ff14

As a magic class, More spells independent of a global cooldown timer, DOTs are good but it feels really brainless with the small amount of management tools you have as a caster compared to dark Knight comboing or monk shifting. I know that spellcasters should be focusing on their dot casts but some more global-independent spells would make it a lot more engaging.

FALLOUT 4

>Play as "Shaun"(The child of the main characters in the original version, you will be able to pick his name and gender)

The game will have a longer introduction in the Pre-War era so "Shaun's" birth will be years earlier

>Not Voiced Obviously

>The game will begin with your birth (Character Creation and S.P.E.C.I.A.L Assignment)

>The game will time skip Ten Years and you will be in School where you'll have a quest like "Growing Up Fast"

>In School you'll have the options to Be polite or rude to various people, start a fight, cheat on a test, help someone cheat, tattle to the teacher about someone cheating

>The Quest will end when your parents pick you up and you take a nap in the car

>Your parents will react to your behavior (perhaps they will be retroactively altered depending on your choices, I.E if you make bad choices it will be shown that you come from a broken home… or not and they'll just be disappointed in you)

>The next quest won't have a time skip instead you'll be woken up by your parents they will drag you into the Vault with them

>You will wake up inside the institute (another 10 year time skip) it will be made clear that you have been raised by the institute

>You will start the combat tutorial here (Against Gen-2 Synth Targets)

>At this point the institutes leader will set you out into the world

This new Origin will give you a reason to side with the institute and make them a legitimate option instead of an "evil for the sake of evil" choice

Also make War Never Changes mod the default and fix settlements so if you set up supply lines and have lots of supplies the settlements will take care of their own needs instead of bitiching that you wont do it for them and starve defenseless out of spite

Bloodborne

>enemies have poise frames/hyper armor on a large number of attacks

>player character has none, if you get staggered, you're vulnerable for an extended period of time

>only get blood vials from drops

>blood vials only replenish set amount health, you have to use more than one to fill your health bar

>can only carry 20 blood vials and bullets by default

>can't replenish blood vials at lanterns or any of the other activities you can do at bonfires, they automatically transport you back to the hunter's dream, so you either leave the area or commit suicide to do these things

>some status effects via blood gems, like poison, are mostly not worth using outside of specific circumstances

>get to end game chalice dungeons so you can get better gems

>the damage percentage increases outrank any of the status effects you can use

>certain weapons have a high bullet requirement for the amount of damage they do, which makes then nothing more than novelties

>laggy network infrastructure compared to other dark souls games on other platforms

These are the issues I think the game faces, and the game could be improved by addressing them. Still a great game.

>>16039696

I'd improve the level design altogether aside from the connectedness. Including the appeal and look of each area.

The quantity of enemies is fine, it's just not interesting as you said. You also forgot to mention all the humanoid bosses.

there are games that are already good but could stand to be a little better

>Dragons Dogma

Make the Pawns playable the D-Pad is unused it'll give it a function and it's a way to test out all the non Hybrid classes without investing in them in anyway maybe give the Pawns a bonus to learning if you use a technique as them

>only get blood vials from drops

I meant to say that you only get one type of blood vial as drops. Game would be better if you could get different vials that heal more, like you could with grass in Demon's Souls.

Fallout New Vegas

Change the factions so that you can kill Caeser by botching his operation before you're locked in to Caesers Legion, Make it so Factions are no longer psychic and can only detect you siding with their enemies if it makes sense Full Loyalty detected after you deal with the Brotherhood

Quests Reordering for it to happen

>Mr. House (same order as vanilla)

-The House Always Wins I

-The House Always Wins II

-The House Always Wins III

-The House Always Wins IV

-The House Always Wins V (Full Loyalty)

>NCR (same order as vanilla)

-Things That Go Boom

-Kings' Gambit

-For the Republic, Part 2

–The Great Khans (Legion Infamy)

–The Omertas (Legion Infamy)

–Mr. House

–Brotherhood of Steel (Full Loyalty)

>Caesar's Legion

-Render Unto Caesar

–Mr. House

–Boomers

–White Glove Society (NCR Infamy)

-Et Tumor, Brute? (After you complete the last part If you pass the second Medicine Skill check he won't say "leave it alone" but "I want you to join me in my tent" and start the quest early. If you save him after finishing it when he says "lest we grow sentimental here" he will talk about the next quest)

–Brotherhood of Steel (Full Loyalty) - (if you finish "Et Tumor, Brute?" first, then when you go to Caesar after saving him, he will say his usual dialogue until "lest we grow sentimental here" then he'll ask "has the Brotherhood been destroyed" and you will have all the usual options )

(if you kill Caesar you either fail the legion like in Vanilla or make the Skill-check, after "We can't let it stand in the way of Legions Goals" dialogue ends if you haven't destroyed the Brotherhood and you continue the quest, out of necessity either subtitle only dialogue or an acknowledgment cut from Lucius other quests is given when you return to him)

(after turning in the Brotherhood quest to Lucius he will start the "Our Scouts" dialogue)

>Yes Man/Wild Card

-Ace in the Hole

-Change in Management (nullifies all infamy that would otherwise be gained in this route)

-Side Bets

–Boomers (Legion/NCR Infamy)

–Great Khans (Legion/NCR Infamy)

–White Glove Society (Legion/NCR Infamy)

–Omertas (Legion and NCR Infamy)

–Brotherhood of Steel (Full Loyalty)

>The Rest of the Quests not mentioned here will go on as normal

–Faction Spies–

>Legion and NCR spies will no longer be able to magically detect your alliance with Mr. House and it's progress they will still be implanted in each others factions however

>Mr House will obviously still know if his army is destroyed and you will fail his questline same as vanilla for that choice

>If you complete "Change in Management" they will no longer be able to detect your progress with Yes Man otherwise you will gain the standard infamy for progressing in "Outside Bets" as spies can see you talk to a robot in the middle of the street

>it is still possible to fail "Don't Tread on the Bear" and "Beware the Wrath of Caesar" by gaining too much Infamy however they will not fail automatically until you report to a faction after dealing with the Brotherhood of Steel

the final turning point for all factions will be the Brotherhood of Steel, whichever faction you report to after dealing with them will lock you out of all other factions except Yes Man

A lot of the things you bring up seem to undermine the faction system to begin with. They had to make it so that doing missions for specific factions would eventually break your alignment with them entirely so the player would be encouraged to stick with one they ideologically side with. Otherwise, if it's actually really hard to get one to hate you by doing missions for another it's probable players would just try to do each factions quests like they would commonly play a Bethesda game not knowing that you'd screw yourself over later. There's moments where "muh realism" flies in the face of gameplay. It would also make players forget you can disguise yourself as the member of another faction because it's actually really hard to get one to hate you unless you start murdering their members.

>>can't replenish blood vials at lanterns or any of the other activities you can do at bonfires, they automatically transport you back to the hunter's dream, so you either leave the area or commit suicide to do these things

I think a system like what Nioh uses would have worked better.

>>certain weapons have a high bullet requirement for the amount of damage they do, which makes then nothing more than novelties

I wish they had made guns function as powerful long range offensive weapons with limited uses as well as defensive weapons used for parrying.

>>16040090

to clarify you would still be able to gain infamy the normal way but the automatic Faction Quest fail for doing to many of the opposing factions quests would be pushed back

>like they would commonly play a Bethesda game not knowing that you'd screw yourself over later.

Again "Don't Tread on the Bear" and "Beware the Wrath of Caesar" would still exist so that would be your warning

> It would also make players forget you can disguise yourself as the member of another faction because it's actually really hard to get one to hate you unless you start murdering their members.

there are quest related infamy changes what I'm saying is if the player works to balance the infamy they gain with the fame they gain for the factions they should be able to play each side to the wire as a reward for properly balancing allegiances.

>Any build engine game

Getting rid of fall damage.

DS2 would have to be completely remade from scratch to be a good game. A few changes won't do it. The fundamental gameplay is just shit compared to every other game in the series.

I'm not a muh graphics nigger but fucking christ DS2 looks like absolute dog shit. It also manages to play more clunky and slow then DS1. DS1 had the best characters/Level design/atmosphere, DS3 had the best gameplay and bosses. DS2 is abysmal fucking trash and I'm so sick of people saying it's a good game just because it's made by From.
